I wouldn't get fox as a head coach. certainly as an assistant, but not as a coach. This is a league that coaches need to show what they have done lately. Fox led Carolina to the worst record in Football this year.

I give Fox respect because he is an Aztec (SDSU), but I always thought that he made some stupid decisions that prevented his team from winning it all. (Sort of like Jim Caldwell of the Colts yesterday, calling that final timeout when the Jets were going to run out the clock and attempt a 49 yard field goal. Instead, they had an easy 32 yarder).

must hurt rooting for Aaron Rodgers. i mean Mike Nolan was informed by Mike McCarthy that this guy is the real deal.Yet you guys chose to go and get alex smith instead.

But anyone from the bay area should cheer hard for this kid. Think about how long ago it was when he had the world on his shoulder when favre left town & he wsaas expected to carry the state pf winsconsin on his shoulders.

You just named one - McCarthy, who passed on Rodgers just as much as Nolan did. Yeah it is a little bit of a sore subject since I a huge Cal fan and was certain that Aaron would be the best QB in that draft. At least we've never thrown away a pick like the JaMarcus pick... Alex is still in the league after all.

Jeff fisher got the axe today, odd timing since so many candidates are settled in already. It would be one thing if they were a big market team that could reach out and get a big name like Bill Cowher or Chucky. My guess is that they'll be left with scraps - at least 5 years of sucking coming your way Nashville.

Kind of crazy that the elite running backs of this generation (beginning with LT now on to CJ) will probably never win a SB... says something about the style of football that wins these days.
